Going through each Kaplan book cover to cover should be fine. Just supplement that with another source such as KA, or even another set of books such as EK/TPR/TBR as Kaplan sucks at explaining certain topics. I can tell you that the P/S kaplan book sucks so supplement that with the "300 pg document" (google it). Use the AAMC outline as a rough guideline to make sure you're knowledgeable on every topic.

Get the AAMC bundle if you haven't already. Save the AAMC FLs for the end, but I recommend interspersing AAMC passages and questions (SB, q packs, etc.) throughout your content review. It isn't a bad idea to do SB and CARS q packs 2x each.

This.

Practice is key.

Doing well means active learning, not passive learning. I would recommend passages over content review. Learn as you go. TBR is great for sciences and TPR and EK for P/S and CARS. Then move to AAMC Q packs and SBs. Then do AAMC FLs. After that, you'll be ready.

Would you say TBR bio passages are more critical thinking or content based?

Thanks everyone! What other FLs besides AAMC do you guys recommend? I was considering Next Step but I'm not sure if it's worth it to buy a few of them?

Highly recommend NextStep.

Try Kaplan and Princeton

Their bio passages were a mixed bag of different things. They have so many questions that you get plenty of critical thinking, but then they drop some obscure, minute-detail question on you here and there that really pissed me off at the time. All in all, about 90% of their passages and questions I found to be helpful. There were a couple questions on my actual MCAT that I didn't see anywhere but TBR, so in the end I appreciated that.

I thought TBR and EK exams were really helpful. Nothing will be as good as AAMC and the scores you get should be taken with a grain of salt.
